All the configuration files used to code in IntelliJ IDEA for the CheckStyle plugin. As of right, this project has two configuration files:
- Android
- Java
The Android configuration file is based on the Android Code Style provided by Google. The original code is from Jens Kohl, which itself is forked from Fred Grott.
The Java configuration file is based on the Google Java Style. The code is a copy from the Google Checks provided by CheckStyle.
Once you are in the main screen of the IDE, access the Settings in the File menu. If you have not open a project, you can still find the Settings in the Configure menu. If you have installed the CheckStyle plugin, you'll find the CheckStyle menu in the Other Settings menu. Under Configuration File, click the green plus sign and a window will open where you can add a Description for the file and point the plugin to the file on your computer or on the Internet.
